GMCMAN52 Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 Right out of the can paint job......looks like a 1:1 real ford...........Great job
ERIK88 Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 Nice kit I have this one in the millennium series . Can't wait to build it all black white wide walls. Really nice paint job
oldscool Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 That's one of the best black paint jobs I have ever seen!
Ace-Garageguy Posted July 8, 2014 Posted July 8, 2014 WOW. It's hard to believe that old kit can look so GOOD. That has to be the best build of that one I've ever seen. An inspiration. What IS the color? it's exactly what I've been looking for, for a long-term stalled project.
StevenGuthmiller Posted July 8, 2014 Posted July 8, 2014 Another nice one Tulio! This one's a bit out of my "genre", (post 1950) but a beautiful build is a beautiful build! Great job!! Steve
Monty Posted July 8, 2014 Posted July 8, 2014 Pardon me as I dig through my box of superlatives, I'm trying to find an appropriate one for this quality of work. Knowing what you started with, I'm even more impressed. Beautiful work all around.
Monty Posted July 8, 2014 Posted July 8, 2014 What IS the color? it's exactly what I've been looking for, for a long-term stalled project. It's Tamiya TS-11 Maroon lacquer.
drifterdon Posted July 8, 2014 Posted July 8, 2014 Those are pictures of the real car! They can't be of a model.... Another stunner from the Jedi Master of the model car world. I'd love to see you do a "How to" of your painting techniques Tulio. Don
Miatatom Posted July 8, 2014 Posted July 8, 2014 Beautiful! I love those Tamiya lacquers. Yes, I agree with Don above, I'd love to see your techniques.
Lovefordgalaxie Posted July 8, 2014 Author Posted July 8, 2014 Thanks gentlemen!! The color is TS-11 Maroon Tamiya spray paint. I think Tamiya is just the very best spray paint you can buy, period.
John Goschke Posted July 8, 2014 Posted July 8, 2014 Outstanding build! This kit may be old but it's got "great bones" and this beautifully done model shows just how great it can look when built by a true craftsman.
Guest Posted July 8, 2014 Posted July 8, 2014 Just stunning. That smooth out of the can? No polishing?
